Aubépine #1

From Karensac and Thom Pico comes this cheerful Dupuis adventure featuring Aubépine, a bright-eyed young girl striding confidently through a sweeping mountain landscape alongside her playful black-and-white dog. Looming behind them is a large teal genie-like creature clutching a glowing orange heart — and the subtitle Le Génie Saligaud ("The Rascal Genie") promises that this supernatural companion is going to be more trouble than help. It's a warm, beautifully designed opener that feels like an instant invitation into a world of wilderness, wonder, and mischief.
